10/100 and 10/100/1000 Fast Ethernet Downlink PortsYou can set the 10/100 ports to operate at 10 or 100 Mb/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. You can set the 10/100/1000 ports to operate at 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. You can also set these ports for speed and duplex autonegotiation. (The default setting is autonegotiate.)
Automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (auto-MDIX) is a feature that allows the switch interface to detect the required cable connection type (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configure the connection appropriately. With auto-MDIX enabled, you can use either a straight-through or crossover type cable to connect to the other device, and the interface automatically corrects for any incorrect cabling. In all cases, the attached device must be within 328 feet (100 meters)
The 10/100/1000 ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 UTP cable.
For information about port connections and port specifications, see the “Connecting to the 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ports” section on page 2-33.
PoE Ports (Switches with PoE Ports)The PoE and PoE+ ports provide PoE support for devices compliant with 802.3af and 802.3at and also provide Cisco prestandard PoE and PoE+ support for Cisco IP Phones and Cisco Aironet Access Points.
All 8 downlink ports on the Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L, 2960C-8PC-L, 2960C-12-PC-L, and the 3560CPD-8PT-S and are PoE-capable. Each port can supply 15.4 W of PoE per port.
The maximum switch power output for the Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L is 22.4 W, and for the Catalyst 3560CPD-8PT-S is 15.4 W. The maximum switch power output for the Catalyst 2960C-8PC-L and the 2960C-12-PC-L is 123.2 W.

Chapter 1 Product OverviewFront Panel
All 8 or 12 downlink ports on the Catalyst,3560CG-8PC-S, 3560C-8PC-S, and 3560C-12PC-S switches are PoE+ capable. The maximum switch power output is 123.2 W. You can budget the PoE and PoE+:
• 15.4 W of PoE output on eight ports
• 30 W of PoE+ on four ports
On a per-port basis, you control whether or not a port automatically provides power when an IP phone or an access point is connected.
The 10/100/1000 PoE ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 UTP cable.
Cisco intelligent power management capabilities include enhanced power negotiation, power reservation, and per-port power policing. For information about configuring and monitoring PoE ports, see the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com.
For information about port connections and port specifications, see the “Connecting to the 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ports” section on page 2-33.
Note The output of the PoE circuit has been evaluated as a Limited Power Source (LPS) per IEC 60950-1.
PoE Pass-Through
The Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L and 3560CPD-8PT-S switches provide PoE pass-through. The Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L is powered either through the 10/100/1000 PoE uplink ports receiving power from a PoE or PoE+ switch or through an auxiliary power adapter. The Catalyst 3560CPD-8PT-S is powered through the 10/100/1000 PoE uplink ports receiving power from a PoE+ switch or through an auxiliary power adapter. If the switch has surplus power (see Table 1-2), it can power other PoE-capable devices such as IP phones, access points, and so on. See Figure 1-6.
See the “Powering the Switch” section on page 2-4 for information on powering the switches.

Chapter 1 Product OverviewFront Panel
Cisco IOS software provides standard file system access to the flash device: read, write, erase, and copy, as well as the capability to format the flash device with a FAT file system.
For more information about the switch management ports, see the switch software configuration guide and the command reference on Cisco.com.
Dual-Purpose PortsYou can configure the dual-purpose ports on the switch as either 10/100/1000 ports or as SFP-module ports. You can set the 10/100/1000 ports to autonegotiate, or you can configure them as fixed 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s (Gigabit) Ethernet ports.
By default, the switch selects the medium for each dual-purpose port (10/100/1000BASE-T or SFP). When a link is achieved on one media type, the switch disables the other media type until the active link goes down. If links are active on both media, the SFP-module port has priority, but you can use the media-type interface configuration command to manually designate the port as an RJ-45 port or an SFP port.
You can configure the speed and duplex settings consistent with the selected media type. For information on configuring interfaces, see the switch software configuration guide.
SFP Modules
The switch Ethernet SFP modules provide connections to other devices. These field-replaceable transceiver modules provide the uplink interfaces.The modules have LC connectors for fiber-optic connections or RJ-45 connectors for copper connections.
You can use any combination of these supported SFP modules:
• GLC-LH-SM=
• GLC-SX-MM=
• GLC-ZX-SM=
• GLC-BX-D=
• GLC-BX-U=
• GLC-FE-100FX=
• GLC-FE-100LX=
• GLC-FE-100BX-D=
• GLC-FE-100BX-U=
• CWDM SFPs
For information about SFP modules, see your SFP module documentation and the “Installing SFP Modules” section on page 2-31. For cable specifications, see the “SFP Module Cables” section on page B-3.

Chapter 1 Product OverviewFront Panel
Management PortsYou can connect the switch to a PC running Microsoft Windows or to a terminal server through either the RJ-45 console port or the USB mini-Type B console port, also referred to as the USB-mini console port.
• RJ-45 console port. The RJ-45 connection uses an RJ-45-to-DB-9 female cable.
• USB-mini console port (5-pin connector). The USB connection uses a USB Type A-to-5-pin mini-Type B cable.
The USB-mini console interface speeds are the same as the RJ-45 console interface speeds.
To use the USB-mini console port, you must install the Cisco Windows USB device driver on the device that is connected to the USB-mini console port and that is running Microsoft Windows.
Note For information about downloading the Cisco USB device driver, see the “Installing the Cisco Microsoft Windows USB Device Drivers” section on page C-4.
With the Cisco Windows USB device driver, connecting and disconnecting the USB cable from the console port does not affect Windows HyperTerminal operations. Mac OS X or Linux require no special drivers.
Note The 5-pin mini-Type B connectors resemble the 4-pin mini-Type B connectors. They are not compatible. Use only the 5-pin mini-Type B. See Figure 1-7.
Figure 1-7 USB Mini-Type B Port
The configurable inactivity timeout reactivates the RJ-45 console port if the USB-mini console port is activated, but no input activity occurs for a specified time period. When the USB-mini console port deactivates due to a timeout, you can restore its operation by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable. For information on using the CLI to configure the USB-mini console interface, see the switch software guide.

Note Figure 2-5 shows the measurements for the location of the screws on the switch.
Step 2 Position the screw template so that the two side-by-side slots face toward the floor, as shown in Figure 2-6.
For the best support of the switch and cables, make sure that you attach the switch securely to a wall stud or to a firmly attached plywood mounting backboard.
Step 3 Peel the adhesive strip off the bottom of the screw template.
Step 4 Attach the screw template to the wall.
Step 5 Use a 0.144-inch (3.7 mm) or a #27 drill bit to drill a 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) hole in the three screw template slots.
Step 6 Insert three screws in the slots on the screw template, and tighten until they touch the top of the screw template.
Step 7 Remove the screw template from the wall.

Step 2 Find the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings on the module top.
On some SFP modules, the TX and RX markings might be replaced by arrows that show the direction of the connection, either send or receive.
Step 3 If the module has a bale-clasp latch, move it to the open, unlocked position.
Step 4 Align the module in front of the slot opening, and push until you feel the connector snap into place.
Step 5 If the module has a bale-clasp latch, close it.
Step 6 For fiber-optic SFP modules, remove the dust plugs and save.
Step 7 Connect the SFP cables.
Figure 2-34 Installing an SFP Module
Caution Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic SFP module port or the rubber caps from the fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.
Removing SFP Modules
Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface.
Step 2 Disconnect the cable from the SFP module. For reattachment, note which cable connector plug is send (TX) and which is receive (RX).
Step 3 Insert a dust plug into the optical ports of the SFP module.
Step 4 If the module has a bale-clasp latch, pull the bale out and down to eject it. If the latch is obstructed and you cannot use your finger, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver or other long, narrow instrument.
Step 5 Grasp the SFP module, and carefully remove it from the slot.

• Connecting to the PoE Ports, page 2-34
Connecting to the 10/100 and 10/100/1000 PortsThe 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 UTP cable. The 10BASE-T traffic uses Category 3 or Category 4 cable.
The autonegotiation feature is enabled by default on the switch. At this setting, the switch ports configure themselves to operate at the speed of the attached device. If the device does not support autonegotiation, you can set the switch port speed and duplex parameters. To maximize performance, either let the ports autonegotiate both speed and duplex, or set the port speed and duplex parameters on both ends of the connection.
See the switch software configuration guide or the switch command reference on Cisco.com for more information about autonegotiation and auto-MDIX.
If auto-MDIX is disabled, use the guidelines in Table 2-1 to select the cable for connecting the 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports to other devices. See the “Cables and Adapters” section on page B-3 for cable-pinout descriptions. See Figure 2-36.

See the e “PoE Ports (Switches with PoE Ports)” section on page 1-5 for information on the cables and connectors.
The ports provide PoE support for 802.3af-compliant devices and also provide Cisco prestandard PoE support for Cisco IP Phones and Cisco Aironet Access Points.
On a per-port basis, you can control whether or not a port automatically provides power to a connected IP phone or an access point.
To access an advanced PoE planning tool, use the Cisco Power Calculator on Cisco.com:

Diagnosing ProblemsThe switch LEDs provide troubleshooting information about the switch. They show POST failures, port-connectivity problems, and overall switch performance. You can also get statistics from the device manager, the CLI, or an SNMP workstation. See the software configuration guide, the switch command reference guide on Cisco.com, or the documentation that came with your SNMP application for details.
Switch POST ResultsSee the “Verifying Switch Operation” section on page 2-5 for information on POST.
Note POST failures are usually fatal. Contact your Cisco technical support representative if your switch does not pass POST.

Chapter 3 TroubleshootingDiagnosing Problems
Switch LEDsLook at the port LEDs information when troubleshooting the switch. See the “LEDs” section on page 1-11 for a description of the LED colors and their meanings.
Switch Connections
Bad or Damaged Cable
Always examine the cable for marginal damage or failure. A cable might be just good enough to connect at the physical layer, but it could corrupt packets as a result of subtle damage to the wiring or connectors. You can identify this problem because the port has many packet errors or it constantly flaps (loses and regains link).
• Exchange the copper or fiber-optic cable with a known good cable.
• Look for broken or missing pins on cable connectors.
• Rule out any bad patch panel connections or media convertors between the source and the destination. If possible, bypass the patch panel, or eliminate media convertors (fiber-optic-to-copper).
• Try the cable in another port to see if the problem follows the cable.
Ethernet and Fiber-Optic Cables
Make sure that you have the correct cable:
• For Ethernet, use Category 3 copper cable for 10 Mb/s UTP connections. Use either Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 UTP for 10/100 or 10/100/1000 Mb/s connections.
• Verify that you have the correct fiber-optic cable for the distance and port type. Make sure that the connected device ports match and use the same type encoding, optical frequency, and fiber type.
• Determine if a copper crossover cable was used when a straight-through was required or the reverse. Enable auto-MDIX on the switch, or replace the cable. See Table 2-1 for recommended Ethernet cables.
Link Status
Verify that both sides have link. A broken wire or a shutdown port can cause one side to show link even though the other side does not have link.
A port LED that is on does not guarantee that the cable is functional. It might have encountered physical stress, causing it to function at a marginal level. If the port LED does not turn on:
• Connect the cable from the switch to a known good device.
• Make sure that both ends of the cable are connected to the correct ports.
• Verify that both devices have power.
• Verify that you are using the correct cable type. See Appendix B, “Connector and Cable Specifications” for information.
• Look for loose connections. Sometimes a cable appears to be seated but is not. Disconnect the cable, and then reconnect it.

OL-23803-02
Chapter 3 TroubleshootingDiagnosing Problems
10/100 and 10/100/1000 Port Connections
A port appears to malfunction:
• Verify the status of all ports. See Table 1-7 on page 1-13 for descriptions of the LEDs and their meanings.
• Use the show interfaces privileged EXEC command to see if the port is error-disabled, disabled, or shut down. Re-enable the port if necessary.
• Verify the cable type. See Appendix B, “Connector and Cable Specifications.”
10/100 PoE or PoE+ Port Connections
A powered device connected to a PoE or PoE+ port does not receive power:
• Verify the status of all the ports. See Table 1-7 for descriptions of the LEDs and their meanings.
• Use the show interfaces privileged EXEC command to see if the port is error-disabled, disabled, or shutdown. Re-enable the port if necessary.
• Verify the cable type. Many legacy powered devices, including older Cisco IP phones and access points that do not fully support 802.3af might not support PoE when connected to the switch by a crossover cable. Replace the crossover cable with a straight-through cable.
Caution Noncompliant cabling or powered devices can cause a PoE port fault. Use only compliant cabling to connect Cisco prestandard IP Phones, and wireless access points, or 802.3af-compliant devices.
SFP Module
Use only Cisco SFP modules. Each Cisco module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information. This encoding verifies that the module meets the requirements for the switch.
• Inspect the SFP module. Exchange the suspect module with a known good module.
• Verify that the module is supported on this platform. (The switch release notes on Cisco.com list the SFP modules that the switch supports.)
• Use the show interfaces privileged EXEC command to see if the port or module is error-disabled, disabled, or shutdown. Re-enable the port if needed.
• Make sure that all fiber-optic connections are clean and securely connected.
Interface Settings
Verify that the interface is not disabled or powered off. If an interface is manually shut down on either side of the link, it does not come up until you re-enable the interface. Use the show interfaces privileged EXEC command to see if the interface is error-disabled, disabled, or shut down on either side of the connection. If needed, re-enable the interface.
Ping End Device
Ping from the directly connected switch first, and then work your way back port by port, interface by interface, trunk by trunk, until you find the source of the connectivity issue. Make sure that each switch can identify the end device MAC address in its Content-Addressable Memory (CAM) table.

Chapter 3 TroubleshootingDiagnosing Problems
Spanning Tree Loops
STP loops can cause serious performance issues that look like port or interface problems.
A unidirectional link can cause loops. It occurs when the traffic sent by the switch is received by the neighbor, but the traffic from the neighbor is not received by the switch. A broken cable, other cabling problems, or a port issue could cause this one-way communication.
You can enable UniDirectional Link Detection (UDLD) on the switch to help identify unidirectional link problems. For information about enabling UDLD on the switch, see the “Understanding UDLD” section in the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com.
Switch Performance
Speed, Duplex, and Autonegotiation
Port statistics that show a large amount of alignment errors, frame check sequence (FCS), or late-collisions errors, might mean a speed or duplex mismatch.
A common issue occurs when duplex and speed settings are mismatched between two switches, between a switch and a router, or between the switch and a workstation or server. Mismatches can happen when manually setting the speed and duplex or from autonegotiation issues between the two devices.
To maximize switch performance and to ensure a link, follow one of these guidelines when changing the duplex or the speed settings.
• Let both ports autonegotiate both speed and duplex.
• Manually set the speed and duplex parameters for the interfaces on both ends of the connection.
• If a remote device does not autonegotiate, use the same duplex settings on the two ports. The speed parameter adjusts itself even if the connected port does not autonegotiate.
Autonegotiation and Network Interface Cards
Problems sometimes occur between the switch and third-party network interface cards (NICs). By default, the switch ports and interfaces autonegotiate. Laptops or other devices are commonly set to autonegotiate, yet sometimes issues occur.
To troubleshoot autonegotiation problems, try manually setting both sides of the connection. If this does not solve the problem, there could be a problem with the firmware or software on the NIC. You can resolve this by upgrading the NIC driver to the latest version.
Cabling Distance
If the port statistics show excessive FCS, late-collision, or alignment errors, verify that the cable distance from the switch to the connected device meets the recommended guidelines. See the “Cables and Adapters” section on page B-3.

Chapter 3 TroubleshootingResetting the Switch
Resetting the Switch
Note Resetting the switch reboots the switch.
To reset the switch:
1. At the switch prompt, enter enable, and press Return or Enter.
2. At the Privileged EXEC prompt, switch#, enter setup and press Return or Enter.
The switch displays the prompt to run the initial configuration dialog. See Appendix C, “Configuring the Switch with the CLI Setup Program.”
Alternatively, you can press the Reset button on the rear of the switch to power cycle the switch.
Finding the Switch Serial NumberIf you contact Cisco Technical Assistance, you need to know the switch serial number. Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2 show the serial number locations. You can also use the show version privileged EXEC command to see the switch serial number.

2. A mode-conditioning patch cord is required. Using an ordinary patch cord with MMF, 1000BASE-LX/LH SFP modules, and a short link distance can cause transceiver saturation, resulting in an elevated bit error rate (BER). When using the LX/LH SFP module with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must also install a mode-conditioning patch cord between the SFP module and the MMF cable on both the sending and receiving ends of the link. The mode-conditioning patch cord is required for link distances greater than 984 feet (300 m).
